Boiler thermostatic mixing valves: characteristics and benefits

Thermostatic mixing valves can be used for water systems as well as for hot beverage dispenser and professional coffee machines. They control the water temperature, mixing hot and cold water to provide the required temperature.

In general, thermostatic heating valves ensure the correct functioning of systems and guarantee the right level of safety in water storage and distribution. They prevent the risk of supplying water at an excessive and dangerous temperature and, at the same time, allow the water heater to work at high temperature removing the risk of the growth of bacteria such as Legionella.

NiTea®, Dolphin Fluidics thermostatic mixing valve

Dolphin Fluidics has developed NiTea®, a thermostatic mixing valve capable of dispensing hot water at the desired temperature for instance for hot drink preparation like tea or infusion.

NiTea® is an innovative valve which assures a high degree of precision and stability without any power supply. It is, in fact, a sustainable device that can mix hot water coming from the boiler or the water heater and cold water coming from the water mains passively, delivering the mixed water always at the perfect temperature and not needing energy.

This thermostatic mixing valve is used particularly for:

• - Professional coffee machines, acting as a coffee valve, post-mix valve and milk valve
• - Intelligent automatic faucets that passively mixes cold water from the water mains with hot water from the boiler

NiTea® is a temperature control mixing valve that can manage a wide range of temperatures. Specifically its hot component reaches a temperature between 110°C and 135°C / 230°F and  275°F and its cold component reaches a temperature between 5°C and 35°C / 41°F and 95°F.

Dolphin Fluidics thermostatic mixing valve works in a reactive way thanks to an actuator made with shape memory material that varies the mixing ratio, compensating any possible fluctuations in the working conditions and can be easily installed and integrated in any already functioning water systems.
